[Alpha Biz= Paul Lee] SEOUL, June 12 — National Pension Service said it will launch an open recruitment process for a chief investment officer (CIO) to oversee its approximately 1,800 trillion won ($1.3 trillion) fund.

The decision was made on June 11 during a meeting of the CIO Recommendation Committee, with applications open through June 25.

Candidates are required to submit application materials, including a résumé, personal statement, and investment strategy plan, either in person, by email, or via registered mail.

Following the application deadline, the selection process will include document screening, interviews, and committee recommendations, after which the NPS chairman will make the final appointment.

The CIO will serve a two-year term, with the possibility of one-year extensions based on performance.

The current CIO, Seo Won-joo, has continued in the role beyond his term expiration at the end of last year, as a successor has yet to be appointed.
